Chinese Steamed Fish

This is a super easy and delicious way to prepare white fish so it’s healthy and flavorful. Great for weeknights! We often serve it with bok choy or broccoli cooked with a bit of sesame oil & sprinkled with sesame seeds (although we did roasted Rapini tonight) and some kind of whole grain.

Bring about 1 1/2 inches of water to boil in a bamboo steamer fitted with a basket large enough for the snapper to lie flat. Season snapper with salt and pepper, and place in the steamer basket. Top fish with ginger, and drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil. Place shiitake mushrooms, tomato, and red chile pepper in the steamer basket.

Steam fish 15 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork. Sprinkle with cilantro.
